Template Description
This template is used to record a point-in-time view of the staff population. The Staff Snapshot Template can be used to track changes over time since there is one record for each staff member for each snapshot date. The Staff Snapshot Template must be submitted in a point-in-time fashion. All types of professional staff should be included in this template. However, terminated staff should be included in this template only if they have been terminated since the last collection period.
Staff that were reported as Active in the previous year and have terminated for any reason since October of the prior year should be reported in C1 Staff with Staff and Staff Snapshot including all termination data.
Staff that leave the LEA for any reason after the C1 Staff Collection should be terminated in C6 Staff updates with Staff template having all termination fields completed.
The only difference between the Staff Template and the Staff Snapshot Template is the inclusion of the SNAPSHOT DATE (Field 50) in the Staff Snapshot Template. See the Staff Template for all other Staff Snapshot Data Elements.
Note for LEAs with No School Security Personnel
If an LEA has no directly employed or contracted school security personnel, a record indicating this must be entered in the District Fact Template.
